Medical Pulse Oximeter for MRI

Pulse Oximetry with Fiber Optics - Useful with Infants, Pediatrics, and Adults. Large Displays.

The model 8600FO Pulse Oximeter with fiber optic sensor is designed to meet the unique monitoring needs of MRI users. Available for use with the system are fiber optic cables with sensors that eliminate the risk of RF burns associated with the use of conductive cables and sensors in MRI. In addition, the 8600FO eliminates the image artifact experienced with some MRI systems and conventional pulse oximeters.

The 8600FO may be used in MRI facilities to monitor infants, pediatrics and adults. The Fiber Optic Sensors contain no magnetic or electrically conductive materials and eliminate the risk of RF burns caused by improper use of conventional pulse oximeter sensors and cables in the MRI environment.

Combined with the low RF emissions and other design characteristics of the 8600FO, the Fiber Optic Sensors reduce or eliminate potential problems with MRI image artifact experienced in some MRI facilities. The 8600FO will meet your needs for pulse oximetry on infants, pediatrics, and adults in fixed-site or mobile MRI units.

It was reported to the MFR that the PT recived burns to the fingers while having a MRI scan of the spine. A Pulse Oximeter Finger Probe was taped on the index finger of the left hand to monitor PT while he was under anesthesia upon completion of the exam, it was noted the finger with the probe was blackened from apparent burns. The second finger was also slightly blackened.
